The Man in the Ranks
Description:... This is a handbook created for U.S. soldiers who were headed to Europe to join the allies in the First World War. Written by Gallishaw, (a Newfoundland author who fought with the Newfoundland Regiment in the war), and Lynch (an instructor in the U.S. Army), this manual mainly instructs soldiers who are fresh to the battle about how to conduct themselves around other soldiers and civilians. The handbook also contains advice on making life in the trenches as simple as possible, as well as pages to be used as a diary and an address book.
